And it begins........ build date delayed

Not trying to be a knob when I say this: But that’s a nearly stock number, Who the heck is doing your tuning? The attached two pictures are a crew cab four-wheel-drive with a 94 octane base* tune from five star tuning.

My point being that thinking you need a new supercharged truck to get better performance is clearly not the case. Most guys with the basic Whipple blower package are going roughly the same as this

No offense taken lol - you're right! I 100% believe the problem is that I'm 2WD (and 4.10 gears ain't helpin'). I'm FBO including CRP stage 4 turbos and mani's, on a 93 performance 5 Star tune. The thing RIPS on the highway; I've taken down a few Corvettes, barely got walked by a Camaro ZL-1, etc etc. It's the dig issue... if I do anything but baby her from the line, all I do is destroy my tires. This includes leaving from 2nd gear.

I'm hoping (expecting, if I'm being honest) that 4WD (and 3.31 gears) is going to solve the dig issue, and 5.0 with a blower may not be MUCH faster than what I currently have on the highway - but it IS faster.

4wd and torque is king for sure.

I went with 3.73’s on my 22 Lariat crew 4x4 I have coming, but I’ll run stock height tires and a SCREW is heavy
